Johnson accepted the head coaching responsibilities at WVU in 1982.  I had a background in powerlifting, and had always been interested in strength and conditioning. But it was Coach Halanger who taught me about motivating athletes, and what it takes to be a Division I strength coach. After the 1988 season in which WVU took on Notre Dame in a bowl to decide the National Championship, Johnson left the college environment for four years to coach the Baltimore Orioles.  I was one of the first five strength coaches in professional baseball, and I thank God for the other four guys who were ahead of me, says Johnson.  You talk about barriers! You talk about misconceptions! You ll have pitchers tell you,  Hey, I can t run the ball to the plate, and batters who ll say,  I m not going to bench press the ball out of the park. Then there were the veterans, who had the attitude of,  I got here without you, I m going to stay here without you, and I m going to be here long after you leave. Because strength training was not mandatory for the Orioles when he arrived, except for stretching, Johnson had only 14 guys from the 25-man roster willing to work with him during his first year.  With college athletes you have more control over the discipline of the athletes. Johnson kept at it and earned their trust, and by his last year virtually the entire team was working out. Although there were some younger players who saw the value in conditioning, the greatest influence Johnson had to get players in the weightroom was Cal Ripken, Jr.  The best thing for me going to the Orioles was Cal Ripken Jr. I attribute a lot of my success to Cal Jr., because he was the leader of the team. <br>Johnson admits that after four years the requirements of being involved with a major league baseball team were getting to him.  People look at it as glitz and glamour. The first year it s kindof neat, but you re on the road about 125 days a year and at times you don t know what day it is-it s just a crazy, crazy lifestyle. So when the athletic director at WVU asked if I was interested in getting my old job back, I tell you, it was a pretty easy decision. <br>Johnson came back just in time, because that first year he saw his Mountaineers take on Floridbehind and be proud of, as evidenced by the numerous signs arountting better.<br> I believe lifting is important for a QB. I took a beating as a sophomore in high school. You have got to be strong. Later, after a lot of time in the weight room, I could take a hit and be OK.<br> I believe a quarterback must be a good leader. When the game s on the line, you have to be the ice-water-in-the-veins guy. You are either a leader or a follower, but a quarterback has to be a leaer both on and off the field. <br>Brock believes the most important thme game and claimed Oregon s football program to be one of the clasrom my perspective, most strength coaches are now incorporating multiple training stimulus in their programs. Just about every strength coach is using some type of Olympic lifting movement, some type of plyometrics-although they may not call it plyometrics, preferring the term  speed training.  <br>Over his years of experience Johnson has also seen the effect of Bigger Faster Stronger on the strength coaching profession.  Coaches all over the country are always talking about what they saw in the recent issue of BFS. Our coaches used to cut out the a
